Ionisation Energy

The document discusses ionization energy, which is the energy required to remove electrons from atoms and ions. It explains that ionization energy is influenced by atomic radius, nuclear charge, and shielding effects. It also discusses how successive ionization energies provide evidence for the arrangement of electrons in atoms and can be used to determine what group an element belongs to based on which electron requires a jump in energy to remove.

Ionisation Energy

Presenter G. Delapenha 26 sept, 2011

Ionisation Energy
Evidence for how the electrons are arranged in atoms comes from ionisation energies. 1st Ionisation Energy The energy required to remove one mole of electrons (to infinity) from one mole of isolated, gaseous atoms to form one mole of gaseous positive ions. e.g. 1st IE of Na: Na(g) Na+(g) + e 2st Ionisation Energy The energy required to remove one mole of electrons (to infinity) from one mole of gaseous unipositive ions to form one mole of gaseous dipositive ions. 2nd IE of Na: Na+ (g) Na2+(g) + e

Ionisation Energy Influenced by three factors:


1. Atomic Radii Larger atomic radii means higher energy levels are further away from the nucleus. 2. Nuclear Charge(# protons) More charge pulls electrons in closer. (+ and attract each other) 3. Shielding effect (blocking effect?)

Calculating Ionization Energy

E = hL = h

where L is the Avogadro number.

How Ionization Energy data provide evidence for subshells


The energy required to remove electrons was sometimes less than expected due to shielding from filled sub-levels.
